@Macks MR2's (especially SW20's i.e. the model in this video) are very much a "cockpit" feel, you are quite literally surrounded quite closely by "the car", i.e., the big hump/centre consul in the interior is actually where the fuel tank is, for front/rear balance/ideal weight distribution purposes.... I'm 6'4" & own a hardtop ( i.e. no sun roof/s ) & I'm a snug ass fit - i use the maximum seat rearwards travel but I'm perfectly comfortable once I'm in. I have worked out a technique of getting in as even the O.E.M seats had reasonably big ( for an O.E.M seat) side bolsters ( adjustable!!!) most aftermarket seats are, - really a bit too big 4 MR's. Some "Bride" models fit O.K. The O.E.M seats are already pretty much on the floor & are at the sill level.... = lower centre of gravity = better cornering ability... If you ever get to look in the "Frunk" (front trunk) check out the battery location - as low as possible.... Excellent design ideas off of the drawing board....

I think it's awesome that you guys are showing this and doing right buy this customer. Having said that, if I were you I would do everything possible to ensure that motor is healthy even if it means getting it finished later than anticipated. Even if it means pulling the motor apart and inspecting the bearing surfaces and piston rings. It's more work than just a motor swap but it's less work than doing a motor swap for a potential third time.

Full transparency. Total honesty. Mad respect to the throttl team.

That's tough to handle when you have so much pride in your work, I work a a dealer and sometimes no matter what you do or how well you do it, stuff happens. It can be embarrassing for sure but you guys are awesome for being honest and handling it well.

Awesome how you guys handled this. No moaning or complaining just working to a suitable solution, because we all know mechanical stuff can breakdown and sometimes it is less obvious why it did. But in this case I believe it had something to do with a high mileage.

If you listen close, you can hear it spinning the bearing even before he gets on the on ramp. Shout out to you guys for being so stand up and fixing it. New sub here for sure.

Throtl team always staying humble and true to their subscribers, customers and fans!

I like it. Honesty is always the best answer. Even when it dosen't seem like it at first.

Hey man, best part about engine problems in an mr2 is they are all behind you in the past!

Respect! Standup gentleman. You don't see that to often. More of a fan then ever now. Can't believe I just said that. But hey, salute!

That’s hella dope 🤘🏼 props for actually replacing it

You guys are the real deal for posting this. If that was me I wouldn’t be the least bit upset with you all. Keep up the good work

Never watched any of your videos, never even seen your channel before this video. But it's fuckin awesome y'all are doing right by him and putting a new engine in for him. Y'all earned this sub.

“Sound like the transmission” 😂😂

I'm 12 mins in and it sounds like a spun bearing tbh. Good on you for posting the vid as mentioned many many times.

That noise hurts my head lol, glad you guys were able to rectify the issue for the costumer. For those shit talking them for not knowing what the issue was immediately from the noise, nobody knows everything and all that matters is that they figured it out and solved the issue, I'm sure they will know in the future what the noise is. Great job and keep doing what you're doing.

Good job on making it right I'm glad you guys were going to put an engine in it that's cool spot man I know y'all spend that time already on it and then you go the extra mile and put another engine in it that's awesome

Guys, showing the unmasked reality goes a VERY LONG way in my book! Great car guys you’re, keep on rocking!

Sounds dry...any oil in there 😂

That's my guess also bearings were dry when the engine was cranked up

I’ve spun a few and they didn’t sound like that! Guess this one was getting ready to send a rod through the block. Great you guys stood behind your work 👍

Great video. These things happen, love that you showed it all.

Has anybody noticed the audio being messed up in a couple clips the past couple episodes?

Are you watching from your phone or a game console?

I respect y’all for showing this. Regardless of all the couch mechanics “oh I knew immediately when I heard it”. Pssshh in the moment and excitement it’s easy to miss stuff. Especially if you drove it just yesterday and it worked fine. They took it upon themselves to fix their problem. That’s what counts. I bet in the future this will only make them better mechanics and a better company.

Denial that all that effort on the engine could go out the window in a moment

You guys showed up in my recommendations and I am happy about that! I thought this was great especially for me being a mechanic idiot, I could really enjoy your efforts in trying to locate the problem patiently. But, @15:51 I blew a snot bubble laughing at that face of annoyance and you kept me for the whole video!

These car builds have became my new obsession. These vids are so good. I watch them everytime on my breaks at work

You guys are the real deal. Keep up the hard honest work! 🤙🏼💯

Just adding a comment to make KZread see engagement! Awesome to see the team coming together to make it right though.

I would have checked the pullies first, that's what it sounded like to me when I first herd it. Nice job finding that bad throwout bearing, I wouldn't have checked that... beautiful car by the way, it makes you guys look surprisingly good posting this video. These things happen, it does no one any good to hide it when it does, good on you. About time I subscribed.

Awesome guys! You owned this! Not many shops would do that. Great content.

This is why, you guys will ALWAYS have my business. You guys are extremely honest and I respect that.

casey heinisch - Nice. I decided to leave mine alone and enjoy it for what it is. It’s been a great car.

That sound was like a terrified chicken 😂

Had a subaru that i bought with a blown headgasket in the past. Sent the heads to the machine shop, new head gasket and everything else. Started a rod knock just miles later. Swapped in a new used short block and it was all good. Hated having to pull it all back out and buy more gaskets. Anything can happen in life or with cars, lesson learned and more time turning wrenches is all good.

Very similar noise I was having, super loud. Turned out to be the bearing in the alternator pulley. New alternator and problem fixed. My 2GRFE has 200k now.

This car looks and sounds EPIC! I'm sure the motor was just on borrowed time. You guys are real stand up dudes.

"Guess the filter works" LOL #FullSendBrett

Open and honest. That's the only way to roll. If only more people did it this way. Integrity. Great job.

Always always check your fluids coolant, oil make sure you have a belt running the water pump and alternator. Hear at idle on first start if something is off and fix that before driving and if driving and the temp or oil light start to move and get hot or read low oil pressure pull over and see and fix why it is causing the problem.

You guys do an amazing job regardless great work team !

Huge respect to you guys for showing us all this and making it right !

Thats awesome you did him right. You could have thrown your hands up and say its your problem but you didnt. You are some straighf up guys!

This episode is the reason I just subscribed to yalls channel. Good stuff guys.

Jeez that sounds good on the pulls

I cannot believe the way you guys handled this. Will be buying as much as my merchandise from Throtl now. Granted it doesn't look like you guys sell much for built Pontiac Solstices but no fear, ill find some way to support! I'm early in my build and plan a forced induction 1jz swap within the next few years so i will certainly support! Cheers! Side note, not many companys do not sell pontiac solstice merch cause its not the typical build/project car but that's why im challenging myself.

Dude, chill. I ain't starting shit with you, have a great day.

The noise can be heard at 6:49...before that pull. Good on you guys for tearing into it and making it right.

I'm glad y'all didn't blame the customer for the misfortune. Nowadays, nobody wants to claim the problem and be responsible for nuthin'! Glad you're doing RIGHT by the customer.👍
